Update - So far so good

General
Howdy peeps,
On Monday I went in to have the surgical team check out the situation from last week, and they decided to operate immediately. I wanted to wait until I'd had a chance to see how it was going for a few days before making the journal so I had a better idea of how it was going, and it's nice to come with some good news this time around~ It was a lot more thorough this time, they used a lot more stitches and also they are not the dissolving kind~ They seemed to do a lot more cauterization as far as I could tell, and it has been WAY less bloody than after the work done on the 19th. Just a few spots here and there instead of trying to keep up with drenched bandages multiple times a day x,Β°D
The whole experience was rather bizarre this time around since the local anesthetic injection was too much for me to take as far as pain goes, I only had a little bit and ended up feeling a lot of the surgery. It was enough of the anesthetic not to be super painful or anything, but it was super weird feeling things happen. The most fascinating to me was the cauterizing tool, which was electrified scissors that cauterized as they cut, but it felt more like someone was putting little droplets of ice water on me followed by like feeling of sunburn. But whooie I forgot having surgery in one spot, then again in the same spot in such a short amount of time is pain city afterward, also think that may have been why the local anesthetic injection was so painful. I had to take paracetamol regularly for the first three days. lol
Anyway, just got out of the shower for the second bandage change of the week and things seem to be going well, all the stitches are still in place, and seems like things are pretty clean. Fingers crossed this will be the last time I have to have surgery on the root of the phallus x,Β°3
I'm hoping to catch up on messages and get some practice drawing in this week, but I'm also trying to be patient with myself since it has been pretty nutty the last few weeks. So I will keep peeps up to date and hopefully be in touch soon~ Thanks again for all of your patience and support, I hope you are doing well,
Bud
p.s. We will survive, but if anyone wants to help while it's hard for me to do much, there are some Zoids 3D models in my ko-fi shop, or if you are feeling super generous donations alone can be made there as well - https://ko-fi.com/loonertick/shop thanks either way <3

It's good to hear good news. Sounds like it were a bit brutal in the immediacy of it but excellent that the progress is looking solid!
